Mietwagen Alkmaar

A forty five minute scenic drive north from Amsterdam will bring you to Alkmaar, the Cheese capital of Netherlands. On your way, you’ll be gliding through meadows broken by yard-wide, algae-green canals and lines of trees with sheep and cattle grazing at track side, and people working in communal gardens.

This is the city where the Dutch culture is still alive and is primarily known for its soccer team, AZ, and its weekly cheese market. The Dutch love their cheese and Alkmaar is famous for having one of the few remaining cheese markets in the Netherlands. The cheese market is located at the Kaasmarkt square. The Dutch put on traditional dresses for the region and demonstrate how a merchants’ market operated in the past.

There is a lot more to do in the city of Alkmaar. You will fall in love with Alkmaar's old-fashioned charm. Just rent a car from VIP Cars and experience the joy of the Dutch life in Alkmaar.
